Jamf Pro Review

  • September 21, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is probably the most recognisable name when it comes to Mac and iPad management. We're mainly iPad based and they always support newly released features from apple. Their 0 day support for new OS releases makes managing iPads very easy. The jamf nation forums and support is also great. The new Jamf Parent app is great as it allows our parents to have some control. Something they've been asking for for quite a few years.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main thing I dislike is not being able to see where a smart group is used or what it is linked to. You have to remember where it is used or go through all your settings. It would be nice to have a reference of each thing that uses that smart group. Fortinet firewall does this very well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have 2:1 and 1:1 iPads across the foundation and Jamf makes it very easy to deploy iPads, apps and settings. Would be impossible to do this manually.

Powerfull and smart - wanna miss it anymore in my daily business

  • July 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Jamf Pro is a very powerful and smart MDM Solution. With Extension Attributes and scripts you can form Jamf perfectly into the infrastructure of your company. We used the Jumpstart to get into Jamf and it really helped us understanding how it works.
If you get Problems you can get very qualified help in the Jamf Nation community. One of the best community's i knew and very helpful users.
What do you dislike about the product?
We use Jamf for about 1,5 years from now and im really sorry... no big dislike till now :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We encrypt our whole macOS fleet with the help of Jamf Pro and got a central storage for all the recovery Keys.

This integration has allowed us to minimize the number of manual activities performed by our Level 1 and 2 resources .

What do you like best about the product?
Data and facts in a single source, easy integration with SNow.
What do you dislike about the product?
My Apple Engineers rave about this platform. I can't say they indicate dislikes. From a leadership perspective, the one thing I dislike is the need to have two different solutions, one for our IOS/MAC OS and another for all other operating systems/end point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Device management, software patching, integrates into our zero touch platform for all Mac OS and IOS devices.

Everything you could need to manage Apple products

  • May 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
If Apple allows you do do it, you can do it with jamf. Some MDMs only allow you do do certain things, but with jamf you know you're getting it all. If you can't do it with jamf, its not possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
The company is growing at an extremely rapid pace right now and with that there are some growing pains. Support is working to improve, but its hard to keep up when adding new staff. There have been a lot of new acquisitions and people shifted from one place to another.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work in education and manage devices for students and staff. We restrict functions on devices due to age, for discipline consequences, etc. We can do this from our desks, which saves time and allows us to be more productive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a very comprehensive MDM; if you're looking for just iOS management it may be overkill. If you're looking for macOS, this is the gold standard.

Powerful Mac Management Tool

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Extremely powerful software - infinitely useful in terms of mac management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Somewhat clunky GUI, time-consuming to set up and difficult to learn.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing policies for over 100 macs. Able to quickly push out an update, block software installation, change settings, remotely wipe macs instantly.

Jamf Pro Apple Management

  • February 28, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like to ease of enrolling the iPads into the management system. Setting the naming scheme, applying restrictions and deploying applications is extremely easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike not having a report feature where I can run reports to pull specific information about apps, security, updates, etc. This can be done now using Smart Groups, but that pulls devices that fit the criteria set into a group and the devices can be exported into a text file or CSV file. I would have to create a "report" from that export that is presentable to my supervisors.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier management and faster deployment of apps to several iPads simultaneously. Previously our teachers were using iTunes gift cards and the IT department was creating and managing Apple IDs for all grade levels. Eliminating the iTunes gift cards was great for the budget and helped teachers focus more on the content in the apps they requested.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The MDM is worth it. There are also so many hidden gems with JAMF that I was not aware of until I attended JNUC. You can use custom trigger policies for client device configuration, you can set up LDAP, and use JAMF APIs to create your own iOS app.

Great Mac management product

  • February 21, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I believe it is the best Mac/iOS management product available. They offer zero-day support for new MacOS and iOS releases and the DEP/VPP integration is great!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish the patch management was a bit more fleshed out. I trust it will begin to be in the next year or two.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We utilize jamf pro for MacOS/iOS inventory, software management, compliance and setup.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use JamfNation! The community is one of the best parts about jamf. People are willing to share how they are using the product and are great resources. Take the time to plan out your policies/profiles. You can save a lot of time by thinking through how to utilize these features best.

Jamf pro - more like Jamf Great

  • January 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use of this product in so many ways and how many categories it actually covers in a simple layout. We've been using the Jamf Pro for two years now and I would go towards any other.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd say that there are some minor details that could be still implemented to the product, but Jamf development team does a great job patching out those in annual updates of the Jamf Pro platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Proper MacOS environment management with solid policy management that provides us with the necessary grasp of the clients which we previously didn't have.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd recommend contacting the Jamf Pro for a product demo and discuss the possibilities onsite demo.

Amazing product for Mac Admins

  • December 04, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
JAMF has a feature set for apple devices that most other companies don't even come close to having. They also have terrific support, with knowledgeable and friendly staff that are always there when an issue may arise.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not had many dislikes, as if an issue did come up JAMF was already aware of said issue, or if not they would add a bug report and usually have it fixed within one or two dot releases. There really wasn't any showstoppers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Initially years ago when JAMF was brought in the main purpose was to get my users FileVault keys redirected into a centralized location (JAMF). Now it is being used for so much more. Having a great product that integrates into others (Azure,SCCM, etc) helps me be able to get done the tasks required in my organization.
